Zac Efron Was Not Disney's First Choice!

He could have been the next Zacquisha!!!

Weeds hottie Hunter Parrish spoke about Zefron, how he was the front-runner for the role of Troy in High School Musical and also mentioned his connection to older women in an interview for the new issue of GQ.

Here are some HIGHlights:

On being shirtless on Weeds:
It’s not contractual, it’s just where my storyline is. I had to show my butt last season for the first time. And I had a hard time deciding whether to do it—we didn’t decide until the morning of the shoot.

On his affair Julie Bowen (15 years his senior) on Weeds, sleeping with an older woman on Law & Order and appearing in a Funny or Die video about cougars:
I don’t know. Maybe I’m a better actor when I know there’s going to be an older woman involved.

On being offered the Zac Efron part in High School Musical:
That is definitely a rumor but it was really, really close. It was down to five guys and then I got offered a part in this amazing Robin Williams movie. And I thought to myself: fly to Vancouver and meet the director for this Robin Williams movie, or stay and finish the auditions for the Disney Channel movie? So I didn’t even go to the last audition. I heard a rumor that I was their favorite, but I never made it to the end. I mean I would have had a blast doing it. But I’m so happy for Zac, he’s the only guy for that.

Damn, right!

We can imagine our lives without Zefron, but Hunter definitely isn’t terrible to look at!
